    This map explain better then 100 words..




    The colored regions in the European core (light and dark blue together) account for the origins…of fully 50 percent of the total European significant figures. Just the five regions colored dark blue — Ile de France, Southeast England, Tuscany, Belgium, and the Netherlands — account for 26 percent of the European total. The other 24 percent come from (in order of their contribution) Bavaria, Venetia, Southwest England, Switzerland, Lowland Scotland, Lower Saxony, Saxony, Baden-Wurttemberg, Northeast Austria, the Italian Papal States, and Brandenburg….

    “Or you can think of it another way: 80 percent of all the European significant figures can be enclosed in an area that does not include Russia, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Spain, Portugal, the Balkans, Poland, Hungary, East and West Prussia, Ireland, Wales, most of Scotland, the lower quarter of Italy, and about a third of France
    In other words: it's the free Republics and the city states that win the day. They are the places that foster original thought and reward creativity. Now if only those city states had united themselves (in the case of Flanders and Italy) in greater Republics.



    Wake up and smell the coffee.

    We've had lots of rain here in Swansea (which is not unusual of course), but not to the point where roads and railways have become unpassable. That said, yesterday on a bus I took between Carmarthen and Aberystwyth to do an assignment I saw lots of heavily flooded fields.

    Some rugby clubs have been totally destroyed by Storm Dennis:

    https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/...-live-17759187

    Blackwood RFC in Gwent have a gofundme page to help rebuild their devastated club: https://uk.gofundme.com/f/help-get-b...up-and-running
